Of Meds and Chocolate Truffles
Two weeks ago, Joe spent a small fortune getting one of my meds refilled and shipping it here.  I still don’t have it.
I have called and emailed multiple times.  Here’s some recent correspondence:
Dear
I will try my level best to help you

重要提示:
尊敬的客户!因海关目前试运行个人物品无纸化报关业务(无纸化报关海关将不会提供纸质税单)
所以会造成部分个人物品申报放行后没有纸质税单的情况,如您收到包裹时对税单所有疑问,
可拨打联邦快递客户电话400-886-1888(手机拨打)800-988-1888(座机拨打)巡查。
感谢您对联邦快递工作的支持!

The last line is my favorite. 
I return to the States in less than two weeks.  The meds may get here long after I am back home.
I had more luck with the chocolate truffles I transported for Iris Zhang.  The ice in the insulated bag had melted when I arrived, but the candy did fine.

Not good - hopefully you can find some there.

What does tomorrow mean? It is 5:30 pm here, but at home it’s 5:00 in the morning. I leave Weihai tomorrow and make a stop in Beijing. ...
